Surely there is an issue for most of "if I'm going to spend the money" I'm gonna kill it.... Keep raping the resourse of it's genetics and the big kings will be that of history. It's a catch 22 really, you take away the catch and kill and you'll see less people trophy hunting. Alaska Fish and Game loves their chunk of the revenue......
